"AIDS coming out of the ATMs..."

That was excellent.

I use the free version of Bandicam atm (http://www.bandicam.com/). I have only recorded short clips and taken screenshots from SWTOR and it works great for me. The paid version of course gives you a LOT more than the free, but you can just try to free one

I do not know if it records your voice when you play, since I use it only a little, but I am sure their site will let you know more.

looks like a 1 PC license is $39, so that's a pretty good deal I think. Check them out!

Right, the exact science is that people can't claim they know he said something in order to support a pick and choose narrative.



"It doesn't make them gang affiliated."

Right, but people will use their brains and assign a probability that if you look like you like gangs, you might be involved in illegal activity, as Trayvon was.



"That's the thing about racism: it is based solely on appearance."

Definitely... appearance including attire, body mannerisms, linguistic mannerisms, and signals of what culture they belong to.

When Chris Rock says he looks over his shoulder at the ATM at night, he's not looking out for guys who look like Obama or Herman Cain's son.

(Advice for smart people: Be proactive and design your appearance and personal culture based on what works, not on what will make life harder for you.)

I got to go with Sepacore on this one if we are talking about the ATM just suddenly starts spitting money out on the ground without being prompted to do so and there is a mad rush for the cash.
First I highly doubt they record every single serial number they put into the ATM. The bank people are paid by the hour, and banks are among, if not the, the most profitable business per dollar earned, so they wouldn't waste time counting every single serial number. They do count the total dollars in and out before that teller leaves for the day. Now there is a slim chance it can read the number as it spits it out, but I have to doubt it is doing that.
Second, as pointed out, the money is traded too fast. Let's say the ATM spit out $2000, and you got $80 in the mad rush. Odds are that money will be spent before the bank/FBI and everyone gets involved in looking over the video. Then that money is likely to have been given as change. So even in the unlikely event that the ATM has an optical scanner to read the numbers it dispenses, it would be useless as the money would have traded hands too many times by the time they put a trace on it... even if it had an RFID chip in it, it would be too late.
That all said, the video does have you. They might not know how much you took or which ones you took, but the video does have you taking some in the mad rush. They will likely eventually ask you to return what you took. So Yogi is in part right on that one...
Now. If we are are simply talking about the ATM gives out some extra money out when you do a withdraw (you withdraw $80 and it accidentally gives you $100) and don't return it, then they probably be able to tell when it malfunctioned, and will seek you out quickly.

Payback, uhmm, an atm spitting money out would need to be reported to the fbi if they want their cash back. Now sure, about all they would have is you on that awesome studio grade camera on the atm machine, but since it would become a federal investigation they MAY pull close by security cameras to locate a car.. or another place you shopped at and may have used a card. The whole process is pretty much the same as if a money bag was left or fell off a brinks truck. The money isn't traceable and the bets they can really do is however involved in security cameras they choose to get.

Its such a rare incident though, there are so many electronics that need to fail in perfect harmony for money to continually spit out, so you never hear of it. There are easily way more atm attempted breakins to worry about.

You don't get free money when an ATM spits it out...they have numbers on them you won't be able to use them you will get caught.


True dat. An ATM spitting out money is no different than someone tripping and you picking up their laptop bag and running off with it.

However, the bank would want to keep it all quiet and would just write the loss off. There's only ever around $20,000 in those things anyway. (two family members in banking)

Not quite, comment based on too many movies and you're probably thinking of credit cards.
If your face doesn't get caught by the ATM camera, cash less than $100 changes hands too quickly for anyone to pin you as the one taking the cash from an ATM spit, unless video recordings at shops are involved.
Video recordings at shops won't be involved because cash isn't scanned when traded and therefore offers no immediate time stamp even if the cash numbers are checked later and reported to nation wide databases and flagged as stolen, which they aren't by any store I've worked for or heard of as would be a logistical nightmare and theft opportunity and would likely occur back at a bank after cash pickup.
Cash goes from your hand and straight into the cash draw, no way for the cash to be linked to you outside of DNA or fingerprint analysis.
Due to the many blind spots, the only way i can see someone being caught is if the ATM video recording is linked to a face recognition database that has your face on record. Then it wouldn't matter whether you spent the money or not regardless of the numbers.
The numbers don't stop you from using the cash, nor do they definitely pin one as the thief. They merely help to track the cash after the fact and offer circumstantial evidence.


I've never seen a movie where this has happened. Also you point out that they can track the cash and use it as evidence against you or they could get your picture. That sounds like an open and shut case. Also I've heard of this happening before and the people were caught sooo, thanks.

Have they actually built a working pair of these glasses or is it just a design study atm??

No doubt ADSR would produce some great science, but it wouldn't address chemistry issues, or any other important issue any better than a LFTR project. It seems to me that it just introduces large amounts of extra complexity and cost. Particle accelerators are big unreliable machines, hence the need for 3 of them for redundancy and they could well reduce safety if something goes wrong. They are not even particularly suited to breeding, as they produce protons which as the name suggests are charged and so need to be very high energy to hit a nucleus and cause fission. The cynic in me says the whole idea was cooked up by the nuclear energy industry to ensure costs could be kept high, and so turn them and their friends in other energy industries a bigger profit (or even just a profit?). My understanding is also that between the various stockpiles of fissile we have, and high breeding ratios from early LFTRs startup fuel should not be a big issue.

I wish you all the best in your learning, I can think of few endeavors more worthy of changing your life's direction >> ^GeeSussFreeK:

>> ^Spacedog79:
The ADSR or "Accelerator Driven Sub-critical Reactor" is unfortunately a massive waste of time. Why not build a properly configured LFTR reactor and it does just the same thing and you don't need to build 3 large particle accelerators to do it.

I agree in one sense, but in another, the chemistry of the LFTR might prove impossible to solve (though this is hardly even a fear atm), so divesting in a "less" effective way to fission isn't a complete waste. Also, you could use this just to breed thorium which would be handy if you hand thousands of thorium generators to start up (you need a good deal of U233 to start the reaction as Thorium is only fertile, not fissionable). This also would be a good way to burn up waste before we get a highly functional LFTR's with the ability to siphon in fission products. In the end, no road should be left uncharted when the end result maybe the salvation of the energy crisis and a life like star trek
I play to dedicate most of my laymen efforts over the next couple of months in learning more about fission for use in determining if I want to drop my life for what is it now and pursue nuclear physics. Pretty sharp turn from where I am now, but I almost feel morally compelled to do so.

Can't wait for a real challenge. Main problem with Skyrim/Reckoning atm is that I'm such a min/maxer and semi-completionist that the game gets ridiculously boring easy about midway to a 3rd of the way through. Make me work for it people!

BTW, min wage laws hurt those who most need a wage. It is really hard to get a job as a used up drug addict. A church I used to be a part of as a Christian tried at length to get the homeless into decent jobs, but when you don't have the faculties anymore, it is hard to get a job where you are worth 7.50 an hour. And while we never ended up facing this issue, because we stopped trying because of legal reason, we tried to do this kind of subcontracting where we would hire ourselves to clean local businesses restrooms for real cheap, "hire out" some help being burned out street people, then pay them the full amount we contracted ourselves for. It was a legal nightmare because of the min wage laws preventing us from doing it. In the end, it was a job that could of been done for money, but in the end, we had to just give them money. In other words, there are many jobs that could be done by the neediest of people who don't have the mental gusto to be deserving of a full wage job. In the end, it ends up forcing a charity gap, where people that don't have skills merit a wage of whatever the min wage is to rely on charity of some sort.

In this, we make law breakers out of them. The man that offers to wash your window for a buck or whathaveyou isn't really complying with min wage laws exactly. That doesn't matter when it is just a car driver handing out money, but when a business can't hire some street folks to make regular cleaning of their outside patio area, then something has broken. Even if I could be convinced that we need a min wage, the way it is setup atm is to "help" middle/lower middle class people at the expense of the most poor. Implementation is very important, almost more important that the act itself. Any act that explicitly raises unemployment for the poorest of the poor is explicitly bad in my opinion.

As a side note, even when I was an unskilled worker...a high school student, I have always made a wage greater than min wage, even when working in fast food. Think about your own wage history, have you ever made the actual lowest wage? If not, then think about the skill set of a person that makes it, and then think of the person that exists below it. The person that exist below the min wage is the person that is most afflicted with the negative this life has to offer, and is also rejected from employment opportunities. I can not morally and rationally support min wage laws as they exist today, I have dealt to much with the pain of rebuilding a life of work and happiness that hedges against the laws. Any law that makes flat out charity the ONLY means of rebuilding your life is morally objectionable.
